OMG...
I just saw this movie 3 minutes ago and immediately went here to post a comment.
It was really much fun watching this, the music, camerawork it was really amazing voor an Australian horrorflick.
Next time I see that a movie is from Australia I will not put it back on the shelf! Promise.
SPOILER:
Oh and in the last bit, where the dog turns on his master and bites him in the groin...whahahaaaaaaa I almost couldn't stop laughing.
This is a must see!
kool i cant wait to see it...i heard the ending's good
shareI agree, this was a great little film. The castration scene involving the father was excruciatingly brutal. The film definitely spoke to the divergence between socio-economic classes but it was subtle. The director touched on it but opted not to delve into it, much as Hooper did with TEXAS. The idea of a couple of bourgeois-types outwitting some backwoods types who've made survivalist brutality a way of life is a bit far-fetched but christ, it made for some damn fine entertainment.
The father's rant about having 'prior convictions' while just outside the door of his farm house, a dog was eating a corpse, was hilarious.
PS
I love the mocking tone of the final moments where the portrait of the three guys in happier times is shown.
Again, great little film.
I agree, this is a real gem of a movie.
I didn't really have high expectaions going in, especially with a title like Storm Warning. It really should be called something else. Like Mangrove Massacre.
Just saw it and i enjoyed it alot
shareexcellent movie? I hope you never get a job as a film critic. The only people allowed to call this an excellent movie are people graduating from watching cartoons all their life and are just seeing their first "horror" flick. It was a steaming pile of turds...
shareThanks for the thoughtful analysis and for not resorting to cheap insults.
Here is a positive review of the film, from someone who is not ashamed of watching cartoons but who had not recently graduated from film school and was definitely not seeing his first horror movie: http://cinefantastiqueonline.com/2008/02/13/dvd-review-storm-warning-2 007
I liked this movie - I watch a lot of horror movies, and see a lot of crap, and this was not crap IMO. I loved that the female did not cower, or just sit idly by and await her fate but instead kicked some serious @ss. Her husband was pretty much useless and I enjoyed how she managed to take control of her situation, and come out alive!!!
this was a very good movie
I thought it was funny a woman that couldn't kill a fish
ends up killing 2 brothers,cutting the dick of the father and killing a kangaroo
You suck and so did this "movie"..

One of best low budget horrors i've seen recently , far better than the recent hostel/saw rip offs that we've seen recently.
It does start looking like its going to be a pile of turd, but does pick up nicely,
not as good as wolf creek in my opinion but a decent horror none the less, and i watch a lot of dross,
ps outpost is a low budget british horror which is worth tracking down that i've seen recently, totaly different in style
great movie. they don't make movies like this anymore. they make movies like vacancy. lol.
sharewatched this film last night, must admit enjoyed it very much.
sharegreat low budget horror flick... not jump out of your seat scarey... but definately some cool scenes. don't listen to the people trashing every little thing they didn't like or didn't like the "writing." because it's good if you like horror flicks. everyone with half a brain knows nobody wants to watch this movie for the writing so trashing it is like beating a dead horse. i recommend it.

A pretty good little horror. Nice build up and sutiably nasty.
shareI wasn't sure what to expect from this once I popped it into the dvd player. But I really liked it. It's not a perfect film but it was very entertaining. :)

I'm glad so many people loved this film as much as I did!!! I guess all movies will have their fair share of haters... what really makes me laugh is the haters that take time to consantly comment on all the threads where people discuss what they enjoy about the film... If they didn't like it you would think that they would just right their negative review and move on... not constantly lurk and troll the board and tell people how dumb they are for liking something just because they didn't. lol...
Anyway, Storm Warning is def a the top of it's sub-genre... Some of the best gore/death scenes i have ever seen! A+ for well built tension and some of the most amazing kills!

This film was quite brutal, nasty, and harrowing. The hard gritty tone and in-you-face unflinching moments of fierce'n'gory violence really gave it an extra nerve-rattling savage impact. I liked it a whole lot.

Totally agree. Saw this flick in 2007. Very brutal survival thriller. Good cinematography n editing. Good direction n decent acting.
Biggest regret- Arnie took away the chance to kill the predator.
Jus finished it. It's too gory man.
